This car has been repainted and upholstered in the eighteen years that I have owned it and has never been in any accident. It has been stored in a roofed area for as long as I have owned it and is free of rust. This car's 4 gear transmission has been replaced with the 5 gear transmission of a BMW 325 for improved performance and motor longevity, but it did not lead to any changes in the car's body. As a result of this modification, this car's handling improved considerably, as did its fuel efficiency. The interior, which was originally vinyl was replaced with leather, but kept the same design. The car's ignition was replaced with an electronic one, and the points have been changed out as well. The original rims were also replaced with a set of 3-piece BBS rims and its current tires have about 800 miles on them. I am still in possession of the original rims should you want them, but they are not complete with tires. This car's bumpers have also been replaced with their chromed steel European variant, done in such a way that one can still switch back to the original ones. I can also provide you with the original rims if you prefer them. This car still has the original radio, with speakers below the seats to avoid cutting the inner door panels. Pictured you will see a small crack in the windshield, I haven't changed it as I have not found an original  replacement. Also pictured are some cracks in the dashboard, which are normally unseen due to a cover. You will also see in the pictures that this car is not using its original air filter, but I do have it if you prefer it. Included also is the owner's manual, with proof of dealer maintenance for approximately the first three years of ownership. As of this listing, I cannot say for certain how many miles worth of service this car received, but if you are interested, I'd be happy to look in to it for you. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have surrounding this car. Thank you.

Weekly Recap: The divergent paths of Tesla and Fisker

Sat, 02 Aug 2014



There's no doubt that Tesla is downshifting while Fisker has been grinding its gears. But it wasn't always that way.
In the wake of Tesla's recent success, it's easy to forget that there were once two California electric carmakers with bright futures.

2015 BMW S 1000 RR looks to retain sportbike supremacy

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

The BMW S 1000 RR is already a pretty potent member of the superbike ranks, but BMW is revealing a host of upgrades for this two-wheeled lightning bolt at the Intermot 2014 motorcycle show that should make it even faster.
The biggest additions to the latest 1000 RR are its new cylinder head, lighter valves and different intake cam to tweak even more power from the bike's 1.0-liter, four-cylinder engine, and BMW now rates it at a claimed 196 horsepower (or 199 horses if you go with the European measurement, converted from 146 kilowatts), a boost over the first-gen's 193 ponies, and 83 pound-feet of torque through a six-speed gearbox. Those adjustments would probably be enough to make the cycle a tick faster alone, but the Bavarian engineers also cut 8.82 pounds (4 kg) to bring the motorcycle's weight with a full tank of fuel to a feather-light 450 pounds. Much of that diet comes from the redesigned exhaust that cuts about 6.6 pounds off the scales.
Cradling that tweaked engine is a redesigned, lighter frame with fully adjustable springs. The bike also comes standard with Race ABS, stability control, seven-step variable traction control and three riding modes. In terms of styling, all of these changes are communicated through an updated fairing with repositioned, though still asymmetric, headlights.

The importance of Angel Eyes, Ventiports and four round taillights

Sun, 01 Sep 2013

Just the other day, we told you about how Lincoln isn't really a luxury brand, according to Ford's head design man, J Mays. His argument was that Lincoln lacked the unique DNA to differentiate it from the rest of the market, although the arrival of the MKZ is beginning to change that. Now, we have this video from Autoline Detroit, where Jim Hall, an analyst for 2953 Analytics who was quoted in yesterday's Lincoln story, explains the influence of certain styling cues and how they impact the brands.
Using BMW (Angel Eyes) and Buick (Ventiports) as examples for small, simple touches that serve to distinguish the brand's vehicles on the road, Hall then points out how changing trademark styling features, as Chevrolet has done on the new Corvette Stingray, can hurt the vehicle's public perception. Take a look at the full video below for an interesting dive into what these styling features mean to their individual brands.
